Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}/SM4/L15513 Re Shock Absorbers hydraulically checked. X.235 R.{Sir Henry Royce} 15/5/13 In reply to Mr Royce's memo dated 12/2/13, we wish to state that these shock absorbers have been fitted to a car but the body came down on them. They have therefore been taken off and returned to works to be altered. Mr Haldenby has supplied us with this information and he states that he believes the levers were incorrectly keyed. p.
